General Mach Discussion / LOST BUT NOT BEATEN
« on: February 13, 2018, 01:35:00 PM »
GOOD MORNING ALL,
I NEED HELP PLEASE,
I RECENTLY BUILT A 5' X 8' CNC WOOD ROUTER. IT IS DRIVEN BY RACK AND PINIONS ON X AND Y AXIS. THE Z IS A BALLSCREW. I AM USING CLEARPATH SERVO MOTORS ON ALL AXIS'S. SINCE WE BUILT THE MACHINE IT HAS RUN BEAUTIFULLY. JUST ABOUT A WEEK AGO WE WERE TRYING TO CUT SOMETHING AND THE MACHINE WOULD MISS CUTTING SECTIONS OF THE PROGRAM. IT HAS BEEN GETTING WORSE AND WORSE. A FEW NIGHTS AGO I DREW FIVE RECTANGLES IN VETRIC ASPIRE. I PREVIEWED THE TOOLPATH AND CREATED A G CODE AND ALL WAS GOOD BUT WHEN I SENT IT TO MACH 3. IT DID NOT CUT THE RECTANGLES CORRECTLY. IT LEFT OFF PART OF THE ENDS AND PUT IN CUTS THAT WERE NOT CORRECT. WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE PREVIEW TOOLPATH EVERYTHING LOOKS GREAT BUT IT DOES NOT PUT THAT TO THE WOOD.
I AM USING A C23 BOARD AND A SMOOTH STEPPER WITH ETHERNET CONNECTION.
I RUN VETRIC ASPIRE AND WINDOWS 7 PRO AND MACH3. AS I SAID, IT HAS RAN FOR A COUPLE MONTHS BEAUTIFULLY BUT NOW IS MESSING UP CONSTANTLY.
ALSO IS THERE A GREAT MOTION CONTROL BOARD THAT EVERYONE USES WHEN USING MACH 3, I WAS TOLD THAT MY C23 BOARD IS LONG OUTDATED AND THERE ARE MUCH BETTER ONES OUT THERE
?
PLEASE HELP
